Almost every interior paint sold in Toronto today is low-VOC, because Canadian law made it so. That means the label on the can is no longer the real question. The real questions are what the colourant adds back after tinting, which certification actually tested the product in an emissions chamber, how long a nursery should sit empty, and what happens when you need a shellac primer that is nowhere near low-VOC. This guide walks through the Canadian g/L limits, the certifications worth trusting, a product comparison in CAD, and a ventilation plan that works in a Toronto February when you cannot open a window.
